Server-generated data should be communicable to the client about ember-model HOT 6 CLOSED

Can you provide more details? Perhaps a JSBin showing what you're experiencing? What you describe should work just fine.

It works when I reload the page, but it's not returning the value to the running app. Maybe I'm just not doing it properly, but I couldn't find any documentation on how it's meant to work. I'll try to get a JSBin up for you.

Looks like I was indeed doing something wrong. I'm not sure what yet, but it's working in the example app (code here) I just created. Well … partially. It returns the tags (generated on the server) to the client, but not the id of the created object. The links to the just-created objects have ids of "undefined", despite being part of the JSON object returned from the POST request.

Hilariously, clicking between the links works even though there may be multiple objects have that "undefined" id. Unfortunately, those URLs don't work when you reload the page so if you share the "undefined" link with someone else or bookmark it, it won't be the right thing.

@jgaskins I think you are missing id: Ember.attr() in your Article model.

That does make the id work, however an explicit id isn't necessary when you get the data from a GET request, which seems inconsistent and adds to my confusion. :-)

Also, I added a belongsTo to the Article model in this sample app to simulate the server attaching the currently signed-in user to the article as the author (this is behavior I need in my real app). This doesn't seem to be handled in the running app until the page reloads even though the relationship is explicit in the model.

Something I'm wondering about, I'm using links.author to specify the relationship in JSON, as mentioned on the json-api.org documentation, rather than the author_id as mentioned in the Ember Model readme. Could the fact that it's contained within a nested document be part of the problem?
